ETERNAL Transmission Vol.412/4/2024
To all the fans of the G Generation series,
Hello again!
This is the SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL dev team.
First of all, we are eternally grateful for your continued support and patience since Vol.3. In response to your feedback, we have decided to brush up some game features, and to add new ones as well.
And now, for the main topic of this ETERNAL Transmission dev blog: we will be conducting a network test to verify the strength of the network environment! The network test will begin January 23rd, 2025 at 7:00pm (PST), so don't miss it!
Also, we've made some major improvements to the system and game UI since the CBT, and we would love for you to take part to the test and see them all!
Network Test Content
*All game images are from the Japanese version of the game.
*English localized texts will be available in the network test.
1. Playable stages unlocked for the network test
The following three works are picked for the network test, from the works available at the launch.
・Mobile Suit Gundam
・Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam: A New Translation
・Mobile Suit Gundam SEED
*The "Mobile Suit Gundam SEED" stage will be available after the 3rd day.
In addition to reliving the original work through battle portrayal of each Mobile Suit and stunning animations with character voices that the G Gen series is known for, the scenarios will now include narration performed by voice actors from the Gundam anime exclusively for this game!
- *Only a portion of the works will be available for the network test.
2. Test out Development and Upgrade for units and characters!
You'll be able to play with some of the G Generation series' upgrade and development features.
Develop various units and upgrade them during the network test.
3. High-Difficulty Event "Fierce Enemy Assault"
In this event, you will fight a powerful enemy for a chance to get an SSR unit.
And if you repeatedly play the stages, you will be able to limit break the reward unit!
4. Base
We have added a feature called the “Base” as something unique to this game, which will serve as the player's headquarters and allow them to access several other features.
Warship Cruise: You can receive useful items for game progression at regular intervals.
Character Request: You can receive rewards for completing the requests given by characters.
Also, the feature has been added that allows you to display and view MS Dock Units you can obtain by clearing the main stages.
5. Upgrade Stage
In these stages you will be able to get tons of Capital and various upgrade materials!
- *There is a limit to the number of times you can play a stage per day for each material.
6. Others
We are making other changes to the game (UI/UX, game system, balance adjustments, etc.) using feedback from the last CBT.
7. Warships and Production/Design/Exchange
Using the feedback we received from fans who participated in the CBT and the trial version shown at the Tokyo Game Show, various functions like the game system, balance, and UI/UX have been adjusted.
In particular, for Warships, Production, Design, and Exchange, we have decided on the following adjustments, taking into consideration the balance when future stages and units are added to the game, as well as events are held regularly.
・Warships
We have newly implemented warships as a "supporter".
Only one supporter can join per squad, and it has two types of skills: leader and support.
Just by having a leader skill, the skill's effect applies to the entire squad, and depending on the units, other various effects will be applied.
Support skill effects are applied during battle, and are mainly used to support your squad.
・Production/Design/Exchange
Users can get various units through processes like Production and Design in the G Generation series, but for this game we consolidated them into one process called "Development."
Plus for this game, you can get special units as a completion reward for developing all the way through on the Development Diagram for each series.
We included other elements to Development to match the progress of the game, such as adding an item that is required to develop certain units called "Technical Journal" that matches the stages of each series. Please take this opportunity to try out this game's Development feature through the network test.
These above features are what can be seen in the network test.
- *Please be aware that some of the content and features may differ from the official launch.
